Texhoma

The Texhoma school district in Oklahoma consists of two schools - Texhoma Elementary School and Texhoma High School. Both schools have experienced significant fluctuations in their statewide rankings over the years, indicating instability in academic performance. Texhoma Elementary has seen its ranking range from a high of 110 out of 846 Oklahoma elementary schools to a low of 783 out of 957, while Texhoma High has gone from 139 out of 431 Oklahoma high schools to 428 out of 463 in the most recent year.

Both Texhoma Elementary and High School have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates of 19%, which is concerning and could be an area for improvement. The schools also struggle with low test scores across multiple subject areas and grade levels, particularly in comparison to state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, Texhoma Elementary had only 11% proficiency in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 26%, and Texhoma High had just 7% proficiency in ELA for 11th grade, compared to the state average of 37%.

The Texhoma school district is ranked 435 out of 452 districts in Oklahoma and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Both Texhoma Elementary and High School serve populations with significant economic disadvantages, as evidenced by their high free and reduced lunch rates of 48.55% and 60%, respectively. While Texhoma High has a lower student-teacher ratio of 8.4 compared to Texhoma Elementary's 19.5, the district's overall low spending per student suggests a need for additional resources and support to address the challenges facing these schools.
